Refuge-Specific Public Use Regulations for Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge
Document Number: 05-19570
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2005-09-30
Agency: Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior
The Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) proposes to open private lands within the boundaries of Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska to public use, with a permit, complying with our commitments made under a Conservation Easement among the United States, the State of Alaska, and Koniag, Inc. The Conservation Easement furthers the missions of the Service and the National Wildlife Refuge System and the purposes of Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge. The easement lands affected by this rule are along Karluk River and Karluk Lake on Kodiak Island, Alaska. The rule will apply as long as the easement is in place. Without this rule, the Service would fail to comply with the terms of the Conservation Easement.
